Publication number: 20240122496Abstract: Provided are a method and device for measuring a respiratory rate, an electronic device, and a readable medium, which belong to the technical field of respiratory rate monitoring. The method for measuring a respiratory rate includes: acquiring a PPG signal; performing a preprocess on the PPG signal; acquiring PPG interval data and a PPG interval variation valve according to a pretreated PPG signal, wherein the PPG interval variation value refers to a difference between two adjacent PPG intervals in the PPG interval data; when there is no the abnormal PPG interval variation value in PPG interval data, calculating the respiratory rate according to the PPG interval data; and when there is the abnormal PPG interval variation value in PPG interval data, correcting the PPG interval data, and calculating the respiratory rate according to corrected PPG interval data. Therefore, the accuracy of measurement of a PPG interval variation can be improved, thereby reducing a measurement error of the respiratory rate.Type: ApplicationFiled: November 26, 2021Publication date: April 18, 2024Inventors: Chuanlong MA, Qiaoyan CHEN

Patent number: 11719777Abstract: A flexible radiofrequency receiving coil array. The flexible radiofrequency receiving coil array is provided on a flexible panel and comprises several rows of coil units. Adjacent two rows of coil units in the several rows of coil units are alternately arranged. Preamplifiers are provided in the coil units. In the flexible radiofrequency receiving coil array, two preamplifiers in adjacent two coil units are provided on a same preamplifier mounting plate on the flexible panel, where multiple preamplifier mounting plates are provided on the flexible panel, and the preamplifier mounting plates of different columns and rows are linearly arranged. The flexible radiofrequency receiving coil array effectively reduces the distribution density of the preamplifiers, ensures the flexibility and maximum degree of distension of the coil array, and improves the fit of the coil array to the human body, thus increasing image signal-to-noise ration and image quality.Type: GrantFiled: April 28, 2018Date of Patent: August 8, 2023Assignee: Shenzhen Institutes of Advanced Technology Chinese Academy of SciencesInventors: Hairong Zheng, Ye Li, Qiaoyan Chen, Chao Luo, Jo Lee, Shi Su, Xin Liu
